This book changed my lifeThe Goat writes, "Some books have made a huge impact on my life." It's true. It wasn't until the b3ta mods read the Flashman novels that we changed from mild-mannered computer operators into heavily-whiskered copulators, poltroons and all round bastards in a well-known cavalry regiment.
What books have changed the way you think, the way you live, or just gave you a rollicking good time?
Friendly hint: A bit of background rather than just a bunch of book titles would make your stories more readable

Always loved itPlus, how much wish-fulfilment is there in it for a child? Flying with laser guns! Playing computer games! Writing persuasively on the internet (before you knew the internet existed) and affecting the whole world! Plus, I totally did the whole identifying with the character and (possibly unfairly?) putting my siblings in the Valentine and Peter roles.
And then Ender gets tricked into killing an entire species, because only someone who knows them too well to want to kill them could do it :(
